This beautiful collection offers young children a charming introduction to the treasures of the Bible. Ann Pilling has retold twenty-one stories from the Old and New Testaments with warmth and inspiration. Each story is accompanied by poems and prayers, making this the perfect book for bedtime. There are tales of love and friendship, loyalty, courage, and faith. Familiar stories, including Adam and Eve, Noah's ark, and the birth of Jesus, are filled with majestic rhythm and resonance. The fresh, clear style makes them accessible to today's children. Kady MacDonald Denton's evocative illustrations perfectly complement each piece. Recommended for ages 4 to 8.
